Food for thought: With the massive transformation in Malaysia, particularly Kuala Lumpur (KL) now, it is indeed a great timing and opportunity for investors to enter the market for business set up, bringing foreign talents and of course real estate investment. Being a frequent visitor and a real estate investor to KL myself, I have observed the tremendous transformation taking place and still ongoing for many years to come.

It is like watching Singapore growing 10 years back. You can imagine the opportunities ahead and what property prices would be in the future. I think you I know your answer. Awesome!
